She gets snippy with both of them - and says Kendall is just trying to keep Spike from her! Richie appears to instigate Annie's anger. Ryan and Zach try to diffuse the situation but Annie won't back down and neither will Kendall.

"You witch," Annie says and runs after Kendall. Ryan and Zach follow. Zach takes Annie, who is still distracted with Richie. She says she still feels uncertain about Ryan because of Greenlee - she says Greenlee is ruining her marriage. She points out that they were going to renew their vows until Greenlee showed up. Zach says Ryan chose her and Greenlee is happily married. Annie insists Ryan is being pushed away from her and stares at Kendall. "Somebody's starting to smell like road kill to me," Richie says. Meanwhile, Ryan takes on Kendall who won't give up on the secret key. He says it was just a diary key and that Kendall needs to back off. She says he has to leave Annie immediately. She says it is only a matter of time before Annie takes things out on Spike and says he needs to have her committed! Ryan refuses. Kendall gives in but says she'll only let Spike spend time with them if Annie isn't left alone with the kiddo. Across the room, Richie keeps pushing Annie. Ryan decides to take Annie home. Kendall changes her tune and suggests and overnighter for the next day.
